Description
We are seeking a UX Design Intern to join our fast-growing Platform Team for 6 months in a full-time capacity. The targeted start date is April 2026 and since we value long-term growth, exceptional performance during the internship may lead to an offer for a permanent role. In this role, you'll help design and develop intuitive user interfaces for our quantum sensing systems, bridging the gap between cutting-edge hardware technology and user-centric software design. Your work will enable semiconductor engineers to interact seamlessly with our advanced metrology tools, making complex data visualization accessible and actionable. This internship is an opportunity to work hands-on at the intersection of design, software development, and cutting-edge quantum sensor development.
What is expected of you
- You are willing and able to join us for 6 months starting April 2026 in full time.
- You are a student or recent graduate in Interaction Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
- You have demonstrated experience with Figma and UX/UI design principles (portfolio required).
- You have basic programming knowledge or willingness to learn Python and Qt framework for UI development.
- You are eager to bridge design and development, learning how to implement your designs in code.
- You bring a user-centered design mindset with attention to detail and visual aesthetics.
- You have strong communication skills and enjoy working closely with technical teams.
- You bring a hands-on, proactive mindset and enjoy solving complex user experience challenges.
- You enjoy working closely with a multidisciplinary team on-site in Munich.
